Still each year there are around 3,000 children that die from cancer. That is why September has been declared Childhood Cancer Awareness Month. http://www.huliq.com/7504/86471/september-childhood-cancer-awareness-month#comments Health cancer awareness child health childhood cancer Thu, 17 Sep 2009 05:56:41 -0500 Denise Clay 86471 at http://www.huliq.com http://www.huliq.com/11/85625/discovery-brings-hope-childhood-bone-cancer Researchers at Huntsman Cancer Institute (HCI) at the University of Utah have shed new light on Ewing's sarcoma, an often deadly bone cancer that typically afflicts children and young adults. Their research shows that patients with poor outcomes have tumors with high levels of a protein known as GSTM4, which may suppress the effects of chemotherapy. The research is published online today in the journal Oncogene. http://www.huliq.com/11/85625/discovery-brings-hope-childhood-bone-cancer#comments Health bone cancer childhood cancer Mon, 31 Aug 2009 07:45:36 -0500 harminka 85625 at http://www.huliq.com http://www.huliq.com/11/85070/genetic-glitches-linked-common-childhood-cancer A multicenter team of childhood cancer researchers has discovered two genetic variations linked to an increased risk for acute lymphoblastic leukemia, or ALL, the most common childhood cancer in the United States. http://www.huliq.com/11/85070/genetic-glitches-linked-common-childhood-cancer#comments Health child health childhood cancer leukemia Tue, 18 Aug 2009 05:42:29 -0500 harminka 85070 at http://www.huliq.com http://www.huliq.com/11/84157/new-genes-implicated-acute-myeloid-leukemia-identified The most comprehensive analysis yet of the genome of childhood acute myeloid leukemia (AML) found only a few mistakes in the genetic blueprint, suggesting the cancer arises from just a handful of missteps, according to new findings from St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.
